I heard someone volunteered their MT, but that was the last news i've heard on the topic.

im probably not, the coupe is automatic and in a couple months will be my better halfs daily driver and im getting something i want. if i was going to go f/i with a auto i would go with a blower. plus i will prob. wait till after the warranty expires. -kris

You're confusing.

I'm saying that the Civic is slow due to the fact the DBW throttle lag kills the car. I also need a faster car and AWD out here.

nobody has a NEED for a faster car.. awd I understand.. but A faster car is all about DESIRE

Now.. this thread is all about: "Who has the ability, desire, and funds", to get a turbo... keep on track.. not "who doesnt want it"... lol

Not at all....for me would be 7k x2 + 80% + 16% + 7.7%......and only the kit, without instalation and tuning.....at least the girls down here are hot LOL...

the coupe = the whole reason why i post on this forum my 07 ex coupe
my better half = my wife
f/i = forced induction

lol you guys are great.. i really dont care how you say it.. i understand!

Well AJP is out of the question on the turbo kit, so now we have no options, is redshift suppose to be building one for the R18? what about greaddy?

if not, we will have to upgrade our fuel lines and run a 75 shot of nitrous. 55 shot if you dont want to upgrade anything.

JeShUa · 08-13-2007, 06:45 PM

If anything, Greddy. Unless Comptech touches the R18 :x.

Civic Pride · 08-13-2007, 09:31 PM

we have a new option, but i don't know if it will make it to the US or not.

some company in china made a turbo for the R18 making 245WHP

customh66 · 08-13-2007, 10:31 PM

hell yea i want that!!!^^

civic_coupe · 08-14-2007, 01:30 AM

the ZAGE kit is putting out 218HP

mO 64 StAnG 06 · 08-14-2007, 01:49 AM

Dude, 245 WHP would definantly need upgraded internals I would think in the R18. If not, I want the damn thing!

Anyone want to donate to Make A Wish foundation to help me get my wish?
